loosing this battle.

i get upset when i'm watching recorded tv and i realize the things in the ads already happened.you mean there's NOT a harry potter marathon this weekend!?

These things have happened more than anything else this break:Mario KartGetting frosting all over my clothes.

Thank you Hilary and Aaron for assisting in my sugar cookie making extravaganza...Even if Aaron insisted on using Halloween cutters and Hilary insisted on using rollerblade shaped cutters and we really only ended up with about five Christmas shaped cookies.

And that's five out of...70 cookies that ended up being made.Because...apparently two handfuls of dough yields one billion cookies.I wish I had a camera because there were/is cookies/dough/bowls/frosting/etc. EVERYWHERE.Oh and the frosting recipe was waaay off about how much vanilla it needed.First batch of frosting was dark brown and toxically vanilla.

There's a plate of about 20 unfrosted cookies, because everyone left and I gave up.

I am trying sooo hard to be Christmasy.Tomorrow we're going to ZooLights for Ang's b-day.I've been wearing red and/or green in some form everyday since Thursday.

You know what we're going to do, right? We're going to live like we're telling the best story in the world.

We will do things that surprise others, but in our hearts we knew we could do them. -Thomas Kelly

It may seem boring, but I think the boring stuff is the stuff I remember the most.

Love is what inspired our Heavenly Father to create our spirits; it is what led our Savior to the Garden of Gethsemane to make Himself a ransom for our sins. Love is the grand motive of the plan of salvation; it is the source of happiness, the ever-renewing spring of healing, the precious fountain of hope. - Dieter F. Utchdorf
